Flirting With Mac OS X
An anonymous reader wrote to us with an article on Byte from Moshe Bar about flirting with using OS X. Taco and I are both strongly considering beginning to use OS X as a primary laptops - anyone else looking at doing this? And anyone from Apple that can get me a good price on super TiBooks? *grin*
But mummy, its only got one trackpad button!
Michael and Taco are both sellouts. This proves it. Go ahead and dump linux, it sucks, has always sucked, and will always suck turds out the ass of a sick pig.
.
Slashdot => "sellouts" & "no_credibility"
Why is slashdot turning into an Apple cheerleading site? I know MacOS is super-cool (and I've been impressed with what I've seen of it), but do we need to be updated on every last piece of gossip about who's considering using oh ess ecks this week? Moreover, do we need the slashdot editors begging for freebies on the front pages? Come on, people, show a little dignity.
"nothing beats pine."?
he's clearly delusional. pine's for pussies.
Unless you're worried about having an out of date OS & having to pay full wack for any upgrades. Oh, and having obsolete hardware when apple switch to intel processors...
Yours, 1 VERY pissed off apple iMac owner (OS 10.1!).
Ehm ... you don't mean that it *needs* 384MB, right?
<rant>I'm beginning to think that everyone is thinking that OS X is great just because of the everyone-says-it syndrome: there are a few people that keep on repeating that "OS X is cool" again and again, and the feeble minded just swallow it. You know, brainwashing. Yeah, it may be cool, but all this switch fever is something that I barely understand.</rant>
My weblog in spanish
My name is cmdrTaco
I run a leanding linux news site.
linux for x86 is getting killed by palladium
So I switched to Mac
Then go over to Apple HQ and suck on Stevie boys cock for a nice long while and maybe if you make him cum all over your slutty little face he will release it for you.
Seriously.
Why stop at the trackpoint and 3 buttons? Add an IBM case with IBM engineering too. It won't shine like a cheap whore, but it'll have a subtle glitter embedded in the anti-slip rubber coating. It'll also have an unobstrusive night light. Memory will be cheap, peripherals will be user-swappable, and you'll be able to put bog standard Linux on it. And your money will go to a company that does everything from specialized software to fundamental research, not some self congratulatory Taiwanese notebook rebadger such as Apple.
Just like dishing out catty comments like the above has always been the realm of fag0rtz. Pot. Kettle. Black... You must be a homo too. Stop posting anonymously and come out of the closet, it'll make your life so much better.

somethign snide about cheap TiBook
get faaaaaaarkeed
uses g4-450 daily & cant squeeze hard enough
We shouldn't trust Apple farther than we can throw them, but we're promoting the use of their closed OS (and an overpriced one, at that.). What gives?
--sdem
Apple has the most crappy hardware in the market, except in the case you like the toilet bowl look for your next laptop. Should I talk about the cube? Mac box sux!
;) (it means I'll probably never go for it ;)
On the other side, MacOSX is interesting. If it was avaliable for x86, and if that application bar didn't suck that much space, and if I was able to bear the Apple look and general system organisation, i'd go for it
Gnome/KDE NOW! Stop sucking Apple, there just like M$ but actually good in marketing to make you eat their crappy products.
If Apple's computers were worth it, you wouldn't ask such a silly question. Of course, many people (not just yourself) recognize the special position Apple is in and are ready-and-willing to be "bought".
At this moment I stopped reading the article. Anyone who would say that PINE is a BETTER email client that MUTT (http://www.mutt.org/) is obviously a dolt and not worth the effort.
Polymorphism -- It's what you make of it.
Tevis, the troll is back again.
He knows nothing, and cant take people who point out that he knows nothing. So he got 2 of his friends with 5 moderator points to attack a "troll." See, this is how losers like Tevis operate. The censor unpopular people or lines of thinking in order to be right. The pussy fucking bitch can try, he and his fag friends, to suppress criticism, but he will fail. Tevis, you mother fucking Troll fascist jerk, please die. You suck. Also note Tevis knows nothing. Its rather easy to tell. He takes his myopic view of the universe and would actuate legislation based on this view. He is not learned [learn-ed, two syllables, Tevis the fag wouldn't know this word], and he is a fool. Death to you Tevis, a pox on Slashdot, death.
Hi, I'm a fag, and I'm Tevis Money. Nice to blow you. Oh, Simplex 2 Herpes?; I love the puss! YUM! Time for me to go down and get to work.
defending the mac. defending. mister xp defendnig the mac. well, at least on win32 i can get cracks for shit that acts lame, like region enforcing crap. apple software is commecial crap. closed source with a fake bone thrown called useless darwin. you think you work at apple you dumb shit? how the FUCK do you know what apple's lawyers do? hmmmmm? how the FUCK? all i know is that apple bought out software companies and dropped the more popular win32 versions of thse products to create an artificial demand for the FUCKING CRAP PPC with the fucking slow pig fat OS X. FUCK YOU TEVIS KNOW NOTHING CRAPPER SHITTER EXTRAPOLATOR LIAR.
You spelled around and anniversary incorrectly. This is like the one hundredth such egregious errors I have seen from you in such a short while. Anyways, lets get to work. If you look at the balance sheet and stock prices of your typical PC vendor versus Apple, I think we can safely say good money was made in the PC industry, and best of all, the uses of those machines don't have a sore ass or a zealot community. You would insinuate that somehow PC vendors are cheesy Chevrolet and Apple is a good Toyota or Honda. I say, bull shit. This is a commodity style bizarre of PC parts, the cheapest bid winds, and the glass epoxy for all this crap gets poured in the same Taiwanese factory. Believe it. I have seen Mac hardware, from before when you were using them, Centris, Quadra, Color Mac, etc. The days of Apple having something special ended with the Quadra, and the denigration started with crap like the Centris. So please, you have no basis to say that Apple can roll it out faster. They basically use immoral strong arm tactics on their uses all the time and then get them to like for the sake of innovation. Need 1394 on a PC, get a fucking Audigy. Need USB, BFD, get a fucking PCI card. What's the big fucking deal? And also, I can still use anything I want from my piles of legacy crap lying around. Mac forces people to throw out hardware or be pigeonholed . I really resent types like you, newbies. I haven't had PCI on a PC board for years. I don't know what you are talking about. And while PCs were enjoying VESA VLB, you idiots were still using some crap and NUBUS, which failed. As for all the other busses you mention, the are fucking slow. Who cares about slow things and junk IO? What's the big deal. Its not like Apple wired up the internal hard drives with firewire. No they use the same junk PCs do. Retard. They used to use SCSI, but you stupid consumers of Apple's never noticed them fucking you over on that.
So, high profit margins gets you a 65 dollar sound card and firewire on the motherboard, and you feel good about that, that would make you a fucking idiot.
typical. you wouldnt test that theory before you sprayed it on slashdot. you ejaculate all sorts of garbage here and you get away with it - for now. i cant believe this crap. this pure, complete crap. and you post at +2 to make your foolery easy to spot. I mean, i spotted you because of that. i have never felt so compelled to tell you how dumb you look, but you seem to troll apple stories, i know you would get fuckin assasinated on political or unix threads. pure crap. youa re pure fucking unadulterated crap. look, if you tell him to do something in OS X, be certain of it. dont dislaim, AFAIK, with your cutsie, lollie, shit acronyms you use on everquest and making gay RPG games and loser stories.
moderate parent troll. oh, and without software, explain to the public how 3 button mice work on Classic without software. thats what i thought. macs ignorant behavior about mice is just one of many things that make the company a niche full of losers and zealots.
need gay sex, goto bathroom stalls in rest areas in the NY upstate area, get tevis's number from stall wall or metal divider, call and fuck. he even swallows after your dick has been in his ass, so make sure you are up on your hepatitis shots.
About the stalker remark. Typical. You can't handle a problem so you label someone. I try and challenge you so that you can show you are not a farce, and you try to marginalize the "perpetrator" of your woes. You are like a certain Attorney General, calling everything that moves a terrorist. Same simplistic mentality. "Stalker." hahahahaha. Anyone who challenges you on Slashdot is a STALKER? hahahahaha.
Dude, you so still live at home. With your father's second hand computer as your own. You barely hold down a job at Radio Shack. You are a pimply, fat undisciplined sexless suppressed homosexual. You are not planning on attending college. You have little aspirations other than immersing yourself in Slashdot and RPGs. You are the fat, lazy pathetic person that it weakening this country. You are the scum of the earth.
Now since my gerbil left me, I've found a new place to dwell

There's lots of furry rodents there at Hamster Hotel
They're looking so sexy, they're looking so sexy,
Dressed in their duct-tape lingerie.
It's technic'ly still legal (except in Arkansas)
So grab a length of rubber tube and kneel down on the floor
They're looking so sexy, they're looking so sexy,
Dressed in their duct-tape lingerie.
So if your gerbil leaves you, don't stutter and don't weep
'Cause if these friends don't satisfy, you know there's always sheep!
They're looking so sexy, they're looking so sexy,
Dressed in their duct-tape lingerie.

- this isnt voice mail or answering machine, this is slashdot, you fucking idiot.
- this forum isnt a letter, note, card gift or a dead animal, you fucking idiot. this is an opt in forum.
- this is not a method of proactive contact since all conject is a matter of subjecting one's self to this content. there are no threats here either. fucking idiot.
- this isnt obsesive, i find it amusing. this isnt phone or mail.
so your fucking stupid, unapplicable notion of stalker is not vaild in reference to this.
this is typical of those who feel compelled to criticize that which they do not understand or cannot compete with. typical loser attitude to deprecate the metric that one loses by.
i am made sick by this malignment. i cannot believe that fervent intellctual combat is likened to stalking. you abuse the term and look only more the fool. i also would like to point out you have no credentials to levy such judgement, and your line of thinking is flawed, inaccurate and zealous. sorry again, you fucking stupid, uneducated moronic foul illiterate obnoxious slimy piece of carmelized dog shit. you know nothing, are nothing and will continue to be nothing.
You use Windows XP, IE 6 and OS X factory install, you are way too stupid to install OS X yourself.
You never set up Debian. You lie like a rug.
With your new special commercial OS, could you find it in your stupid, stupid dumb heart to use a spell checker - you stupid fucking idiot.
